Tastes

Very nice. Orange on the nose. Very fruity and floral.

Mixed feelings. I think this is great value for a single barrel, but it's probably not my favorite. It has really mellowed in my glass over an hour and now I'm really liking it. It's probably the driest whiskey I've had. That said, it's fruity with some nice vanilla. I'd come back to this, but I'm not hunting it down.

Very nice. Smooth and rich. Lots of fruit, mainly raisin and fig. Vanilla cream too. It has an Irish feel to it.

Very nice. I primarily get a butterscotch orange, but lots of vanilla and spice there too. Full and rich flavour too. This is Booker's but better. It isn't as hot, and has just a slightly better flavour.

This is the Canadian version of Woodford Reserve Double Oak in a Rye. It's all that deep wood flavour, vanilla, caramel, and a little orange... Then add a Rye spice.

I'm a fan of WT101 on the low end, but Rare Breed really steps it up to a high level. I really like how spicy it is. Big vanilla too. Love it.

Very rich and spicy. Deep toffee and caramel flavour. It's quite a heavy and complex Bourbon.

If you like the single barrel, this is just a step up. Even at 66% abv, it's surprising not overpowering, but definitely add some water. Huge vanilla caramel. Quite sweet.

Definitely better than the Small Batch. Rich, full and spicy. Lots of caramel. Layers to explore.

It lives up to the hype. Rich and a little oily. Initially vanilla and caramel, but then layers of chocolate orange and a little leather. Very pleasant! Not worth secondary prices though.
